Yeah my grandfather used to work on a ship when he was younger, scraping barnacles and such on it. So he probably travelled a lot. And maybe that’s why he likes to collect coins and stamps.

I suppose he has some coins and stamps which he keeps as mementos from his own trips?

Maybe probably? Anyways, they’re mainly all helter skelter somewhere now. XD;; i don’t really know where they all are actually. Oh well.

My dad used to collect stamps and coins. I think he sold them. Still remember that album of stamps and the super heavy box of coins that was the size of my head XD
I try to keep a coin or two from my travels. I glued three coins to an agate I own, it looks cool. It's one British penny (or was it a quarter?), one Polish grosz and one Polish commemorative coin that has a nice reverse. I think it's from Gniezno, but can't remember now.
Edit: I'm done with the Full Lips! *confetti rain*

I still keep some coins.
Specially some very old ones which were my great-grandma's, which I cherish and I would never get rid of.
Congrats mem!
*confetti rain*
That's my quest as well.
It's gonna take me two months more, but I'm after them. They look really nice, and come in so many colors!

After great-grandma! That's a nice memento
Thanks. At first I thought to only buy more natural colors, reds and pinks, but then I noticed I missed some lips in other colors as well, so I went and bought them slowly one by one. I hope In a year I won't decide that it was all in vain because I don't use them, lol.
Next goal: Heterochromia Eyes. Also not all of them.

Yes, it is. She gave them to me, cause she kept herself for special reasons.
I was lucky enough to meet three of my great-grandparents, two of them actually lived in the same house as I did when I was growing up

so to me they are kinda like "older" grandparents
People sometimes gets surprised my son got to meet four of his great-grandparents, but it seems like my family is quite long-lived
Oh, I definetely want the lips in all colors, cause I change my color schemes so much I'll end up using in many of them.
The lips I currently use the most are the Punky Knuffel Lips, for the very same reason.
I'm not sure about the Heterochromia Eyes myself, I think they look awesome but I'm not sure it's something I would use a lot.
After the lips, I'll consider the saber. If I pass on it, I'll go after the Vitry Hair directly - which I really want too.

I keep collector quarters and other coins in a piggy bank thing. Dunno what happened to that box of stamps my grandfather had. Oh well.

I have two albums I think.
My son was so amused the first time he saw them!
